ORDER GRANTING DUKE ENERGY FLORIDA. LLC’S THIRD
REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF CONFIDENTIAL CLASSIFICATION
(DOCUMENT NO, 03049-2020)
On February 27, 2026, pursuant to Section 366.093, Florida Statutes 	(F.S.), and Rule 25-
22.006, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), Duke Energy Florida, LLC (DEF) 	filed 	its Third
Request 	for Extension of Confidential 	Classification (Request) of Richard Polich’s Deposition
Exhibit No. 2 (Document No. 03049-2020). 	This material was originally granted confidentiality
by 	Order 	No. 	PSC-2020-0354-CFO-EI, 	issued 	October 	9, 	2020. 	DEF’s 	First 	Request 	for
Extension of Confidential Classification 	for this material was granted by Order No. 2022-0229-
CFO-EI, 	issued 	June 	27, 	2022. 	DEF’s 	Second 	Request 	for 	Extension 	of 	Confidential
Classification 	for 	this 	material was 	granted by 	Order No. 	PSC-2024-0396-CFO-EI, 	issued
September 	3, 2024.
Request for Confidential Classification
DEF contends 	that the information contained in Richard Polich’s Deposition Exhibit No.
2, more 	specifically 	described 	in 	Exhibit C 	to 	its 	Request, 	continues 	to 	constitute 	proprietary
confidential business 	information 	entitled 	to 	protection under 	Section 	366.093, 	F.S., and Rule
25-22.006, F.A.C. DEF 	asserts 	that 	this information 	is intended to be and 	is 	treated by DEF 	as
private and has not been publicly disclosed.
The 	information contained 	in Richard 	Polich’s 	Deposition 	Exhibit No. 	2 	consists of a
financial 	assessment 	of NorthStar Group 	Services, 	Inc. 	(NorthStar). 	DEF 	states 	that 	this
information 	is commercially 	sensitive 	confidential 	information 	concerning 	NorthStar’s 	assets,
liabilities, and stockholder’s equity which, 	if disclosed, could have 	significant adverse financial
affects on NorthStar and 	its 	shareholders. 	Further, DEF 	states that 	it 	is contractually required to
keep 	this information confidential. 	For that reason, DEF argues that this information 	is protected
by Sections 366.093(3)(d) and (e), F.S.
Ruling
Section 	366.093(1), 	F.S., provides 	that records 	the 	Florida 	Public 	Service Commission
(Commission) has found 	to contain proprietary business information 	shall be kept 	confidential

ORDER NO. PSC-2026-0127-CFO-EI

and shall be exempt from Chapter 119, F.S. 	Section 366.093(3), F.S., defines proprietary
confidential business information as information that is intended to be and is treated by the
company as private, in that disclosure of the information would cause harm to the company’s
ratepayers or business operations, and has not been voluntarily disclosed to the public. 	Section
366.093(3), F.S., provides that proprietary confidential business information includes, but is not
limited to:
(d) Information concerning bids or other contractual data, the disclosure of which
would impair the efforts of the public utility or its affiliates to contract for goods
or services on favorable terms.
(e) 	Information relating to competitive interests, the disclosure of which would
impair the competitive business of the provider of the information.
Upon review, it appears the above-referenced information continues to satisfy the criteria
set forth in Section 366.093(3), F.S., for classification as proprietary confidential business
information. 	The information contained in Richard Polich’s Deposition Exhibit No. 2, if
disclosed, could adversely impact the competitive interests of NorthStar as well as DEF. Thus,
the 	information 	identified 	in 	Document 	No. 	03049-2020, 	shall 	be 	granted 	confidential
classification.
Pursuant to Section 366.093(4), F.S., the information for which confidential classification
is granted herein shall remain protected from disclosure for a period of 18 months from the date
of issuance of this Order. At the conclusion of the 18-month period, the confidential information
will no longer be exempt from Section 119.07(1), F.S., unless DEF or another affected person
shows, and the Commission finds, that the records continue to contain proprietary confidential
business information.
Based on the foregoing, it is hereby
ORDERED by Commissioner Mike La Rosa, as Prehearing Officer, that Duke Energy
Florida, LLC’s Third Request for Extension of Confidential Classification of Document No.
03049-2020, is granted, as set forth herein. It is further
ORDERED that the information in Document No. 03049-2020, for which confidential
classification has been granted, shall remain protected from disclosure for a period of 18 months
from the date of issuance of this Order. It is further
ORDERED that this Order shall be the only notification by the Commission to the parties
of the date of declassification of the materials discussed herein.
